is ahead, for while Helena is wicked
Bozeman is good. Helena is too hog

everything, from Delegate TO Congress

want the Republican and Democratic
nominations, and no man, unless he

they want nomination or an election

remove the yoke of subserviency from

parison of this medicine with blood
purifiers and medicines, being confident
that the peculiar merits of Hoods Sar-
saparilla are so apparent that the people
will unhesitatingly prefer it to any other
preparation. Hoods sarsaparilla is not
mixture of molasses and few inert
roots and herbs, but it is peculiar con-
centrated extract of the best Alternative
and blood-purifying remedies Of the
vegetable kingdom. The enormous sales
Of Hoods Sarsaparilla, and the wonder

When Helena secured the capital
prize the citizens of that town said it
was only temporary location. and that
other towns of the Territory should, in
turn, have the temporary capital until
such time as the development and
geographical considerations should war
rant the permanent locating of the seat
of government. The proper time seems
to be approaching, and as Helena docs
not want the capital it would be
generous act ON the part of outs iders TO
relieve the citizens of that city Of bur-
den they are carrying. We are ciedibly
informed that good-sized majority of
the members of the Legislature, mindful
ofther duty to the whole people, are favor
ing and secretly, but enthusiastically
encouraging measure of this kind, and
that if introduced it will probably pass
by an overwhelming vote Ofthe places
mentioned instead of Helena many
possess superior advantages and finer
geographical lOcations-for they are not
dependent on few Prickly Pear potato
patches for sustaining life. Seriously re-
garled Bozeman is considered place
where all Territorial official business
could be Systematically and economically
transacted, ana it is confidently predicted
taking in consideration the fact that
Helena has lots of money, that if the
question of removing the capital is sub.
nittcd to n popular vote that Bozeman
would be selected, in preference to Hell

Bozeman is its centrality, and its

Perhaps the most unique celebration Of
the German Emperor Williams birthday
was that which took place 1000 feet high
on the southern summit of the Bavarian
Alps. Two mountaineers-Stanzl and
Walch by name-ascended to this eleva-
tion, and then kindled q bonfire, tho ma-
terials for which they had laborionsly
dragged with them. They had intended
climbing to the very summit of the Watz-
mann, but deep snow prevented this, and
the bonfire Of wood and petroleum was lit
on the Falzkopfi. The ascent of the
mountain often brought the climbers up
to the shoulders in snow, but they were
determined to perform the feat, and they

The amendatory enactment, so-ralled
the Anderson bill, which was introduced
and earnestly favored by Messrs. Alder.
son and Hoffman, of Bozeman, was
watched until it became law with more
interest in Bozeman than in any other
town in the territory. 1t restricts
women from voting in city elections, by
the substitution of clause to the char.
ter, defining in no uncertain words that
the qualifications of a voter in city
shall be the same rs those entitled to
vote for members of the legislature.
There has always been a mist of uncer-
tain;y clouding Bozeman's charter in
this respect, which was first construed
by the Republicans to mean that women
taxpayers could vote at city elections,
and it is a matter of common history
that Hon. w. W. Anderson was himself
elected to the high Office of city alder
man by the ladies. As we stated last
week, this matter no doubt was effected
by the prohibition vote, which comes in
larger degree from the ladies; although
its provisions were taken advantage of
by those who have surrendered all
claims TO such an appellation. The
CHRONICLE regrets that widows should
be taxed without representation; but as
this seems to be the case everywhere
else, there is no more injustice in it here
than elsewhere. Bozeman appears to be
divided into three factions upon this
matter: Prohibitionis.s, composed al
most to man of Republicans who de-
sired 10 make their power felt in the
city election, probably to exert u pres
tige in the coming fight for local option;
Republicans who were desirous of ad-
ministering blow to their recalcitrant
brethren, and Democrats who have
watched indiflerently the battle from
afar, satisfied with the policy of their
party, and with traditional fcalty giving
no heed to side issues. The first are
decidedly glum over the outcome, the Sec
ond overly happy, and the last, but not
least, satisfied. We will now anxiously
await the coming of another city elec.
tion, that it may be demonstrated
whether or not prohibition is to affect
our city politics rs 1t did at the last city
